The Great Backyard Bird Count is held each February for four days. The world comes together for the love of birds!! Birding is awe-inspiring. It connects us with a sense of place and gets us outside to explore our neighborhoods and towns. Birds are everywhere, all the time, doing fascinating things!
Come to this event on Saturday, February 18th, and handle binoculars, learn about bird behavior, put together a bird puzzle, flip through a bird book, or build a feeder to take home! Guided bird walks will also be offered.
| All ages; 12 and under require an adult.
FREE – Registration required. Text BIRDS to 605-777-0110 to sign up!
